The vulnerability involves suppressing the normal check that a
SQL function returns the data type it's declared to, or changing
the data type of a table column used in a SQL function
(CVE-2007-0555). This error can easily be exploited to cause a
backend crash, and in principle might be used to read database
content that the user should not be able to access.
